Media sources have revealed that prominent Syrian singer
George Wassouf has refused to have the Lebanese government pay his medical bills
at the American University Hospital in Beirut. George had stated that brother
of Syrian President Bashar Al Asad has already offered to cover all medical
expenses due to the fact that the singer is of Syrian origin.

Reports had it that the Lebanese Minister of Health Hassan
Khaleel had paid a special visit to the singer at the hospital. George’s
condition is now improving and stabilizing after experiencing a brain stroke
and falling into a coma ten days ago.

Wassouf remains in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) despite the
fact that he has regained complete consciousness and is alert of everything
around him. Doctors want to keep a close watch on the singer to ensure he recovers
completely.
